Dog $hit rant

[Anonymous]

I have not seen a dog drag its ass along the grass to wipe it. Did you train it to do that? The only time I have seen a dog do that is when terrier type dogs need to have their anal glands expressed.

It might take a couple of weeks and a couple of applications but it will work.

And OP, really, I agree that dog owners ought to pick up after their dogs and I understand your revulsion but isn't this one of those less-than-pleasant things that goes with the territory of having kids?

Oh yes, Nature's Miracle works great. +1

Why should she have to pay for this? That's not the answer at all. We need laws.

talking about nastiness...

Does anybody know how the hell I can remove the urine odor out of my rug? I tried deep cleaning myself with dr rug steamer but the smell is not going away.

I ran the steamer vacuum like 6 times last Sunday.

Any suggestions besides throwing my new (2 months!!!!) rug away?

Thx

I stepped in a fresh pile in my brand new running shoes on the way to my gym when I cut through my front lawn to put something in recycling bin.

I am convinced it is the work of the douchebag's dog ...the douchebag that steals my Sunday Washington Post about 3 times a month.

DH and I are on early watch this Sunday AM.

When this happened a few months ago-- on my birthday, incidentally-- I tried cleaning the crap, then gave up and purchased new floor mats for $130.

Wasn't going to do this again so soon, so I had to clean it this morning.

Dogs are so not high on my list right now. Filthy, nasty creatures. They make really bad neighbors. The owners who don't mitigate their animals' inherent bad neighborness are even worse neighbors.

What kinda car do you drive? ...Have Target's prices gone up that much???!!!!

What part of the city are you in?

Sorry that happened. Yuck.

What- like it disintegrates, or the dogs (and rats) eat it?

Dogs eat it. Probably the same dogs who leave it.

Nature's Miracle. Although it works best if you use it before you use any other cleaner.

We had this regularly in AU park after a new family moved in down the street. Luckly they moved away. One day as i was cleaning the crap off my shoes they walked by with the dog. We exchanged hellos and I told her that once again I was cleaning dog crap off my shoes (not blaming her since I didn't actually see them not clean up after their dog). It got better for a bit but didn't stop until they moved away.

The pet store sells stuff to get rid of urine smell

Uh, no. I personally have stepped into dog crap AS AN ADULT. Please tell me why having kids automatically means you should be dealing with spending "weeks" cleaning dog sh*t out of your car mats?

Because the only reason anyone would have to do that is because idiotic dog owners are letting their dogs crap without cleaning it up. God, you guys are just horrible, horrible people. I can't believe the justifications you're trying to pull on this thread. JUST CLEAN UP THE GD DOG POOP, OK!?

I'm the PP you're responding to and I wasn't saying this only happens to kids. I too have stepped into other dogs' crap as an adult and it disgusts me too. What I meant is that having kids means that you have to deal with a lot of crap, literally and figuratively, that you otherwise wouldn't. Sleep deprivation. Chaos at meals, and the kitchen floor constantly sticky and covered in food. Picking up random people's litter, covered in who knows what, in parks so your kid doesn't pick it up and put it in his/her mouth. Killing bugs with your hand so your kid doesn't pick it up and eat it. Etc. I've had to overcome so many personal aversions and phobias as a mom. That is what I meant.

btw when my DD was 1 she found and picked up some random dog's poop from the tree box before I could stop her. Disgusting!

I ALWAYS pick up after my dogs. I too hate it when others don't and I'm not excusing it AT ALL.

I appreciate your much more rational response (than my post -- I was all in a dander about the "kids and dogs are both gross!" poster).

I so completely agree with you that having kids means you have to put up with so much you never expected you would. I guess I saw it as rationalizing because, when you get right down to it, with all the other crap parents have to deal with, dog poop shouldn't be piled on, too (forgive the expression). I'm glad you always pick up after your dogs, I wish everyone were responsible like that (which would give us parents a break when it comes to dog turd policing, at least!).

I am in Clarendon....so if you are stealing a newspaper in DC I won't get you--but if you are in Arlington (on the way to the dog park)---you're going down!

My take on it is this: there are some people that will not pick up after their dog if nobody is looking/around. Period. If they notice others outside-- they will drag out their baggie and do it. I notice this from my window seat when I WAH or am up early or late in the evening.

Then- there the courteous type of people that do it all the time.

Fortunately, it seems to be more of the latter type in our neighborhood.
